Local Law 11/98 Facade Fisp Inspection
FAÇADE (FISP) INSPECTION

SERVICE OVERVIEW

Passed in 1997, this law requires that building owners and managers of all structures 6 stories or taller undergo periodic inspects and file the inspection report with the Department of Buildings. This inspection has to be completed by a New York State licensed professional engineer of architecture. In 1998, this law was amended to include the inspection of façades every five years.
